Had +4 CON mutation from the start, and stat boosts tended to be CON so I had a lot of HP. Gained telepathy just before beating Orfax, and collecting an incredible randart (see screenshot coming up). Also found Hithlomir early on...decided to keep Celestial Protection for now. Unfortunately, the recovery mutation got rid of hit and away and electrical aura before going away, but I'm still telepathic and can use berserk rage.

An early Cloning Pits trip didn't really work out...went after the top enemies first, using my Berserk power to quickly heal. Reached clvl 31, and Tzeentch polymorphed my HP down from 530 to just over 400 :( As if that weren't enough, I forgot to bring levitation with me, so I tried to teleport into the bottom. Eventually I did...unfortunately an Archpriest summoned Smaug the Golden...uh oh! Walked around looking for artifacts, then waited for Smaug to come and quaffed my one potion of Resistance...unfortunately, it wore off just before I got to Smaug again after a teleport, and I was taking 100 HP per turn from his fire breath. Teleported and recalled out of there...
